Riding up Insolvent Track | J |
In the days before its change | K |

Where Maroka's waters swell | L |
Many a stream that seeks the plain | M |

Still the dark haired Dargo thrives | N |
'Mid her lands of range and rock | O |
While blood horses bear men's lives | P |
In and out amongst the stock | O |

Willow hung that wind about | R |
Here the blue eyed maiden dreams | Q |
As she marks the leaping trout | R |
